Florida builder plans to add jobs

Custom boatbuilder American Custom Yachts, located in Martin Country, Fla., plans to bring as many as 40 new jobs to the area to accommodate two large yacht construction projects under way at its 63-acre Stuart facility.

"Thanks to our expansion over the past few years, we are now able to take on projects of this caliber," American Custom Yachts president Dominick LaCombe said in a statement. "This is definitely going to be a boost to the economy of Martin County."
